Quiet days along the waters of Lake Boone
Oak Grove is home to one of Johnson City’s largest waterfront communities, granting an array of recreational opportunities atop the waters of Boone Lake. Home to calm residential streets, the community has also welcomed a handful of suburban-like subdivisions in recent years. However, considering its 8-mile distance from the hubbub of downtown, most do their shopping and dining along North Roan Street closer to home and attend events at the longstanding Appalachian Fairgrounds in the neighboring community of Gray. “I can feel the influx of people coming in because I have lived here my whole life, but it’s still a relatively quiet area and overall city,” says Amy Versaw, Realtor with Keller Williams – Carter Properties Group, and native who lives in northern Johnson City.
Boone Lake Beach provides a place to cool off during the summer.

From wooded ranch styles to a-line waterfront homes
Mid-to-late-20th-century ranch-style homes run along the community’s winding residential roads, where dense forestry provides a sense of rurality and privacy. These wooded portions open up to subdivisions developed at the turn of the century, filled with New Traditional-style homes. Closer to the shores of Boone Lake are one and two-story a-frame-style houses offering water views. Many along the waterfront feature private docks, providing a place to store boats and relax by the water. “It lost its appeal because of how muddy it got when they drained the lake for dam repairs," Versaw says. "People didn’t really go out on the lake. However, after the refilling in the last couple of years, people started getting back on the lake and property values went up again.” Prices for a home in Oak Grove range from $200,000 to $450,000, while larger recently built or waterfront homes can reach up to $600,000.
Bi-Level homes are one of many options for potential Oak Grove residents.
